I just received in my email my 1864 CN IHC I recently submitted got a MS 60 grade. It also states corroded. I remember seeing a small dark part on the coin near one letter on the obverse but didn't think it was corrosion. Oh Well. So, my question is. How much does a slightly corroded 1864 CN IHC in MS 60 would value at? Any past auctions would be helpful also with final prices to help me compare for a future sale. I know this is a scarce date and many have corroded badly because of nickel/copper mix. thanks G
This is a fairly common issue. In general, an AU58 should be a $150-$200 coin while an MS61/62 should be only slightly more and typically less than $300. If the coin received a "details" holder instead of a problem-free holder then the value would plummet.
